thoughts

It took me fourteen years to finish my novel. I despised myself all throughout those years (and before those fourteen years, and after them - where else did you think those sad!Alex fics came from lol). I despised myself while I was doing my bachelor’s degree, my master’s degree, and while I was working my first job(s). And in between all those things, I kept writing.

And, you know what, I did do all those things. I do not believe I deserve a master's degree, but I made it to the end despite everything my brain was throwing at me. I ended up being able to support myself. I adopted two bunnies that live like royalty. And I did finish my novel.

I wrote agonisingly slowly because I had no way of turning off the voice in my head that said I wasn't literary enough, wasn't intelligent enough, wasn't intellectual enough. When I was eighteen, I started writing this story because I felt that Sebastian, my main character, had to be set free. I wanted his story to be out there, I wanted to prove to him that there's a place for him in this world. But

I did not manage to get it out there. His story keeps being rejected by every publisher I send it to, even the people in publishing that I know. Perhaps I was right to hate everything I wrote. After all, Sebastian is still stuck in between the lines of my manuscript. Part of me wishes someone with real literary talent had written him.

He would have hated that

but I still wish I were a better writer. I owe it to him.

I wake up every day feeling like something big's about to happen. I sit at my desk at my job in the book field (not literary field, mind) every day and feel like I am finally in the right place, like I'm finally home. But nothing ever happens.

I want nothing more than to set Sebastian free.

But he's not allowed out there. Because of my lack of talent. He's not allowed to walk free and that is my fault.

Writing is everything to me. I can't and won't quit.

But.

I totally agree with you on the voice actor thing but the pronunciations are not the voice actors fault? It's the voice director(s) and writers, isn't it?

Oh definitely and I don’t blame them!! Absolutely the fault of the writers/voice directers/etc. It’s more of a personal thing that annoys me because as a Chinese person, I see them pronouncing Yuè (月) as “yoo-ay” and hēibái (黑白) as “hey bye” and so many other things and it’s just frustrating. I understand that pronouncing a language you don’t speak is hard, but when they put so much effort into adding these aspects of language and culture (like how 月 literally is ‘moon’) and then don’t say it correctly it feels kinda :////
